About Cornbread's Hauling & Excavation in Lake City, SC

Owner-Operated Excavation Service Launched by a Construction Professional

Cornbread's Hauling & Excavation is an owner-operated excavation and hauling service serving Lake City, Florence, Johnsonville, Hemingway, Coward, Scranton, Timmonsville, Pamplico, Conway, Marion, Mullins, Kingstree, and surrounding areas. Licensed and insured, the company brings over 10 years of general construction and excavation experience to every project, with specialized expertise in drainage, ditch digging, pipe fitting, and site preparation.


Owner Austin started in the plumbing division of construction before discovering his strengths in excavation and dirt work. That hands-on background means he understands how underground systems connect—where water needs to flow, how drainage affects site stability, and what preparation different projects require. When you work with Cornbread's Hauling & Excavation, you're working directly with Austin from estimate through completion.


The business launched at the end of June 2026 to serve homeowners and small-to-medium projects throughout the Lake City area. As a solo proprietor, Austin handles every aspect of your project personally. You won't be passed between office staff and field crews—the person who provides your estimate is the same person operating the equipment and ensuring the work meets your expectations.


Austin's approach reflects his philosophy: "I'm not out to make a super killing like a lot of my competitors are. I try to shoot fair price compared to price gouging. Customer satisfaction guaranteed because I will not leave a job until the customer is happy." That commitment shows up in transparent pricing, thorough explanations of what your project involves, and a willingness to adjust until you're satisfied with the results.

Building Local Reputation Through Proven Results

After years working for larger construction operations, Austin transitioned into excavation and dirt work where his skills in drainage and site preparation made the biggest impact. He launched Cornbread's Hauling & Excavation to bring that expertise directly to property owners who need reliable excavation services without the overhead and pricing structures of larger companies.


Based in Lake City, the business serves residential and commercial clients throughout Florence County and surrounding communities. Austin stays active on local Facebook pages, posting before-and-after project photos that demonstrate the quality of his work and build word-of-mouth visibility throughout the area.



That decade of construction experience means Austin approaches every project with an understanding of how excavation fits into larger building and maintenance goals. Whether you need drainage correction, site preparation for a new structure, ditch digging for utility lines, or general hauling services, you're working with someone who's handled these challenges across hundreds of projects and knows how to execute them correctly the first time.

Straightforward Service from Estimate to Completion

When you contact Cornbread's Hauling & Excavation, Austin visits your property to assess the project, answer your questions, and provide a free written quote. He explains what the work involves, why certain approaches work best for your situation, and what you can expect during the process. Because he's the one doing the work, estimates reflect realistic timelines and costs—no surprises or change orders unless you request additional services.


Austin doesn't consider a project complete until you're satisfied with the results. That customer satisfaction guarantee means he'll make adjustments, address concerns, and ensure the finished work meets your expectations before wrapping up. It's a level of accountability that's only possible when the owner handles every project personally.
